Cassava starch processing plant

To process cassava into starch, cassava starch processing machine plays an important role in the quality of final starch. Doing Company as a professional starch processing machine manufacturer, our equipment features with low power & water consumption, easy installation and maintenance, high starch extraction rate and well matched motor configuration.

1. Cleaning and washing: Cassava root needs to be processed immediately after harvest because the root is highly perishable, and the enzyme process accelerates deterioration in 1-2 days. Cleaning in cassava starch processing plant serves to remove the sediments attached on cassava and outer peels of cassava. Then cleaned cassava enters into paddle washing machine for further remove the soil, dirt and other impurities with countercurrent washing method.

2: Cassava grating
In cassava starch processing plant, this step determines the starch yield. Grating serves to breaking the structure of cassava to achieve the purpose of releasing free starch. The more free starch, the higher starch yield. DOING rasper is a high efficient machine with cassava grating rate more than 94%.

3: Starch and residue separation:
Using centrifuge sieve and fine fiber sieve to separate fibers out of starch slurry. In cassava starch processing plant, this is also a key step for starch extraction. Multi-stage centrifuge unit is adopted for better effect.

4. desanding section: After the separating section in cassava starch production line, the starch slurry still contains sand which need to be removed by desander machine. The function of desander in cassava starch processing plant is to fully remove the fine impurities in starch so as to ensure the taste and quality of starch.

5. Concentration and refining of cassava starch
Instead of traditional precipitation process, the concentration and refining process can separate non-starch substances with high efficiency, thus to improve the quality and whiteness of cassava starch. And hydrocyclone station is the widely used machine in cassava starch processing plant for this purpose. Hydrocyclone station can effectively separate non-starch substances such as protein, fiber and cell sap in starch.

6. Starch dewatering equipment: Peeler centrifuge is the extensively used cassava starch processing machine for dewatering in cassava starch processing plant. It can realize automatic control and auto scraper unload. Siphon type peeler centrifuge is a more efficient one which can not only improve productivity by 50%, but also can effectively decrease moisture content to 36.5%.

7. Drying and packing: Then it comes to drying procedure whose main function is to dry cassava starch to meet the commercial starch standards. In cassava starch processing plant, negative pressure flash dryer makes the wet starch suspended in the air by the hot gas flow with high speed. It is characterized by high heat transfer coefficient, large heat transfer area and short drying time. Then the dried starch is packed for marketing or warehousing.
